{"product_id":"ryrie-john-camouflage-18345","title":"John Ryrie 'Yseut'","description":"\u003cp\u003eDrawn to the woodcuts prints of late 19th century Edvard Munch (the artist best known for ‘The Scream’), Japanese artist Shiko Munakata and the work of William Blake, John Ryrie has established himself as an adept storyteller through the medium of printmaking. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn ‘Yseut’, he evocatively depicts Iseult of the White Hands from the Celtic legend of Tristan and Iseult. The scene is pivotal. After Tristan is fatally wounded, he sends for Iseult the Blonde, his former lover, asking that a ship with white sails signal her arrival. Watching from the shore, Iseult of the White Hands sees the white sails but, consumed by unrequited love, tells Tristan they are black. Believing Iseult has not come, Tristan dies of despair. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRyrie is an esteemed printmaker. He was awarded the Grand Prize in the Silk Cut Award for Linocut Prints and a finalist in the Geelong acquisitive print awards, and is represented at the National Gallery of Australia. For collectors of contemporary prints and visual storytelling, ‘Yseut’ is a poignant, rich find. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/collections\/john-ryrie\"\u003eJohn RYRIE\u003c\/a\u003e (1961 - )\u003cbr\u003e'Yseut' 2003\u003cbr\u003eetching on paper\u003cbr\u003eEdition of 10\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eImage Size\u003c\/i\u003e: 13 x 10 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDimensions\u003c\/i\u003e: 38 x 28 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSigned\u003c\/i\u003e: Signed 'John Ryrie', editioned, titled, dated under image\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eComes with Letter of Provenance\u003cbr\u003eStamped by Chrysalis Publishing on lower right corner.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCondition: \u003cstrong\u003eExcellent\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e(c) John Ryrie \/ Copyright Agency\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art and Collectors","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46454143909958,"sku":null,"price":370.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0499\/8229\/files\/ryrie-john-yseut-18345.jpg?v=1787805490","url":"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/products\/ryrie-john-camouflage-18345","provider":"Art and Collectors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
